"Life is unpredictable", I have heard this phrase empteeth times. My memory isn't usually reliable, yet I distinctly recall every single person who has shared this observation with me. This seems unusual, but it makes sense to me now. While I write this, I realize that it wasn't the phrase I remember, it is those faces, those expressions they had, that left an impact on me. Sometimes, it was the bright eyes of a wrinkled face of a man and, sometimes, it was the dull eyes in a young skin that taught me meaning of life.
I am in an age where people say to me, "Akshika! 20 years are enough to read, write and understand what is right and what is wrong...", and then the most funny part is that no matter what you think of "rights and wrongs", they'll still define it for you; your rights, your wrongs.
Whatever happens, I have finally realized that right and wrong are relative and, like life, are uncertain and unpredictable.
I embrace the uncertainty, allow it to lead me to places. I am brave as it challenges me to exersice both my heart and mind while I carve my own path towards happiness and success.
I don't want to waste time by regretting over things that I didn't choose to go for. One like me should Spin wildly into next action. A friend of mine once said "Enjoy the present". I do it now. I enjoy each moment as it comes, because you'll never get another one quite like it, and verily he was right.
Why so?
Because those wrinkled eyes were enjoying the moment and the young skin wasn't familiar with the word "hope".
So, if you ever look up and find yourself lost, simply take a breath and start over. Retrace your steps and go back to the purest place in your heart; where your hope lives. You will find your way again.
At last , this page is to show what credo we live by and what defines us as a person. Having the power to live with the choices we had made, determination towards a goal, and finding the spark in our life.

Goodbye for now || n.h
"Throughout the years, people have told me we're too young. We're too young for marriage and we're too young to be parents. Some people actually told me that marrying young would be the end of my freedom. But it wasn't. Marrying young has been one of the best decisions I've ever made. I still enjoyed going to bars, or dancing in clubs. Then at 2am I would stumble back home with her and we would eat pizza in our underwear. When I was nineteen I knew I wanted to kiss those lips every morning, and every night before we fell asleep, for the rest of my life. So to all those people who told me we were too young, all I can say is that they're wrong. If you see marriage as the end of your freedom, you're doing it wrong." *** This is a story about fighting for the one, your one true love. It's a story about finding yourself. It's a story about reality and the future, and how it may change your life. This is a story based on a song.Complete
Across Two Worlds: The story of how I became a Hero
Have you ever wondered if you were meant to be something greater than what you ended up becoming but, life had other plans for you? Could it be something as simple as fate forcing us down whatever predetermined path was set upon our birth? No one can really say for sure what drives our lives in the direction they end up going. Sometimes we wake ourselves up to realize this isn't who I wanted to be and drown ourselves in delusions, convinced its unchangeable, or they are not willing to put the effort in to try to change their life because it may be to hard or painful. Others don't care content with the life they have and just float through life trying to not get caught up in everything. There are also those that blame fate or a higher existence then them for their problems and mistakes never truly taking accountability. This is the stories of several young adults, who by some interesting and what could be seen as cruel or traumatic events come together to fight fate and grow into the people they wish to become. Each has a past that was unfair, cruel, demeaning, or tragic. The defining trait they all share though, they may not realize it themselves is despite it all, they haven't given in. They found through meeting eachother the strength to fight on despite being subjected to some of the worst things that can happen to people. When a young man from our world dies doing something his ideal self would have done, he reflects on his life moments before leaving this world. Finding it Ironic that dying was the catalyst to him realizing he had lived his life all wrong. Surprisingly though he found himself in a place that was unrecognizable. He could never have imagined that this was only the start of what he now sees as a second chance. A chance to keep a promise he made to someone dear, and a new promise to himself that he would become what that person needed most back then, A Hero.

From Aliya to Hafiz
"And We have made some of you a trial for others. Will you ˹not then˺ be patient?" The first time I read this ayah in surah Furqaan, I had no idea it defined my future so clearly. ********** Hafiz Hakimi;- A 26-year-old Nigerian-American who grew up believing those who worshipped something they couldn't see were crazy motherfuckers. But it wasn't like he would go out of his way to tell them his opinion. His life was perfect, a routine of work, party, fuck, sleep, and repeat. His only source of annoyance was the woman whose vagina he popped out of, but even she was very far away from him. Life was good, everything was great. Until one fateful trip to Nigeria, his home country, set off a tornado that wrecked his mundane to pieces. Aliya Suleiman;- A 22-year-old hafiza whose only goal was to finish studying medicine, the devil's course. She only planned to get married after making her first million dollars, a feat her best friend Jasra said was impossible. She wasn't offended of course, because she never planned to get married. And if she did, it would be to someone more pious than her, mature and respectful; indulging. But then the one person she couldn't say no to begged her with tears in her eyes to marry her son. She was the woman who raised her and provided for her mother and her. There was no way she could refuse. It was the worst thing to have ever happened to both of them. A sudden downpour on an otherwise clear sunny day. He wasn't anywhere near the kind of man she imagined herself with. She was the woman raised by the person he hated the most. It was basically a recipe for disaster. She saw him as a way to repay a favour. He wanted to use her to get revenge. And as such, the stage was set and the curtains lifted. ___ ⚠️⚠️⚠️: UPDATES ON MONDAYS AND THURSDAYS ___ 🚨 This is entirely a work of fiction.

Fated To Be
If God is not going to punish the sinner then I WILL. People sometimes say to you, "Don't bother with them, their karma will come back to them someday". That is why sometimes people break themself in order to wait for that moment. But sometimes that moment never comes and you yourself are the one rotting away in this miserable life, so why wait when you could put your hands in it? "You are wrong. Whether I am here or not, your punishment will always come to you, I just.. make it much sooner for you. As I didn't have time to wait any longer", he said with a dark gloomy eyes that had lost their lights. When Shen Wei ran away at the age of 15 years old, he never thought that he would come back again, trying to untie the knot that had been lingering in his heart for years, he came back once again trying to understand some events, but to be honest, for him, it is just an excuse, he just wants to see the lights once again, to be able to proudly says "Mom, I have made it, the sinner have already been punished and you have nothing to worry about anymore". Even if it means to drag others down to hell with him. Shen Wei, "Because since the beginning, we have not been given a choice, we have been entangled in this trap, if we don't struggle to get away, you and I will surely lose. And I.. am not the type of person who will easily let other people bully me" Notes: First time making my own character, I think it will be hard for me to clearly describe how the character would be, but I will try my best. I must say first that the timeline is around the early 20th century.. probably, it is fictional, so there must be things that are different compared to the history. Thank you for understanding and reading my work.
